UCSD School Board has agreed to make a few changes to the meeting days, times and format. Included in these changes are:
1) Meeting days to be on Tuesdays instead of Wednesdays
2) The 1st Tuesday of each month will be a Work Session Meeting
3) The 3rd Tuesday of each month will be a Regular Session Meeting
As before, Regular Session Board Meetings will include official business and are used to make formal decisions. Public comment is invited during these meetings. On the other hand, Work Session Board Meetings are informational and discussion-focused to allow for a deeper dive into future topics without the pressure of immediate decision-making or official actions made. The public is invited to attend these sessions, but public comments are not invited.
